TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 15, 6:30pm - 8:30pm PT
This is an in-person workshop at
CfM Art Room:
4035 Judah St, San Francisco, next door to our shop!

The natural imperfections of watercolor make it a perfect medium for creating organic forms, patterns, and textures. This course is a playful approach to finding those patterns and forms in the natural world, from plants, rocks, and wood. I’ll bring some materials for inspiration, and we’ll start with a free-form exploration in watercolor, then pick some favorites to develop into more refined, finished pieces.  Along the way, we’ll look at how simple observations from nature can be translated into shape, form, and texture. The class is designed to encourage experimentation while building a collection of finished studies.


MATERIALS NEEDED
These are the supplies you'll need to bring for class—feel free to supplement this list with other options you love or have on hand!
